zazzle makes cards too!

try out Qoop for albums, posters and

• centralize digital files (move it or loose it)

• duplicate your digital files (lots of copies keep stuff safe)

• when in doubt print it out

(physical) storage & climate control

• all inks & papers are not created equal*

• acid free housing - yes, please!

• climate & display
